Rivet, Marson Brand, Dome Head, Aluminum Rivet, Steel Mandrel, Mill Finish (Value Rivet)

Open end rivets are used when disassembly is difficult or not required. Dome head types have domed, cylindrical heads with low profiles. They are commonly used for their large bearing surface and versatility. Aluminum has a high strength-to-weight ratio and is wear resistant, nonmagnetic and conductive. It is easier to form and machine than steel and is naturally noncorrosive. Steel is strong and durable but less corrosion resistant than stainless steel. To improve its resistance to corrosion, it may receive additional finishes and coatings.
